Vietnamese Pork Chop

This is such a simple and flavoursome dish to use with a pork chop. I have made this a few times before and every time I just love it. This time I didn't have shallots though and used green onions instead. I much prefer the shallot version and will definitely make sure I used them next time.

I like to serve this with some rice, fried egg and an asian type coleslaw. All of these components work really well together I think.
